Talk:List of firearms used by German Armed Forces

Should the FG42's users be listed as Luftwaffe, as it is now, or Fallschirmjäger, since I'm fairly sure they were the only people to use it. Also, would it be a good idea to ad a section explaining what the branches are? Not everyone knows what Fallschirmjäger, or Feldgendarmerie, or Volkssturm are and explaining might be nice. --Mandolin 18:19, 9 August 2012 (CDT)

The explaining on the branches sounds like a good idea as some might not know what they do such as myself for example. Im willing to write a little but I don't have much time at the moment.Mr.Ice 22:07, 9 August 2012 (CDT)

G28 is NOT just a regular HK417 put in a DMR role

It is actually a (most likely accurized) semi-auto only version of the HK417. I think we should change the name of it in the Marksman, AMR, and Sniper Rifles section from HK417 to G28. Jeddostotle7 18:54, 9 August 2012 (CDT)

Done. --SmithandWesson36 00:49, 10 August 2012 (CDT)

The actual weapon that the G28 is based on is the DMR762, which is a militarised version of the civilian MR308 variant. --commando552 04:29, 10 August 2012 (CDT)

Also, should the image be the standard version rather than the lightened patrol version:

Oh yeah. Still, it required the change on the page. Jeddostotle7 12:36, 10 August 2012 (CDT)

Should we include DDR Weapons?

Really excellent work! Just wondering though, should we include weapons used by East Germany/NVA as well?--Wildcards 12:42, 10 August 2012 (CDT)
